Benefits of technology

[0014] According to the foregoing objectives of the invention, an electronic device case according to an embodiment of the present invention comprises two parts, an upper cover and a moveable base. The moveable base is a hollow shell, a

Problems solved by technology

However smaller sizes and easy portability have led to other problems.
Consequently the design and manufacture of cases are becoming increasingly harder because more elements, such as data linking interfaces and radiating vents, must be contained in a smaller case.

Embodiment Construction

[0021] Reference will now be made in detail to the present preferred embodiments of the invention, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. Wherever possible, the same reference numbers are used in the drawings and the description to refer to the same or like parts.

[0022] The current trend in electronics is for devices that are light, thin, short and with small volume. Consequently, the capacity in the host case of electronic devices has to also become smaller. There is not only the main system circuitry of the electronic devices but also some data linking interfaces and extending modules that need to be contained within the host case; hence, the host case must have enough space to contain devices for external connectivity and vent thermal heat generated by system. The basic concept of the present invention is to design a moveable base for the host case. When extending or radiating space is desired in the electronic device, the moveable base can be opened to ...

Abstract

An electronic device with a moveable case comprises an upper cover and a moveable base. The moveable base is a hollow shell, and one side wall of the moveable base is pivoted with one side of the upper cover for the moveable base to rotate around the pivot. Another side of the cover has a control structure for controlling the movement of the moveable base.

Description

RELATED APPLICATIONS [0001] The present application is based on, and claims priority from, Taiwan Application Serial Number 94115260, filed May 11, 2005, the disclosure of which is hereby incorporated by reference herein in its entirety. BACKGROUND [0002] 1. Field of Invention [0003] The present invention relates to an electronic device. More particularly, the present invention relates to an electronic device with a moveable case. [0004] 2. Description of Related Art [0005] Many kinds of electronic devices like personal computers (PC), personal digital assistants (PDA), digital cameras and mobile phones are frequently used by people in modern times. Progress in design and manufacturing techniques, have made these electronic devices smaller and smaller and they are becoming more convenient to carry. For example, an original mainframe system occupied a very large footprint, but the desktops and laptops nowadays can be placed at the edge of a table and are very easy to carry. [0006] Ho...
